Summary

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a very common operation that increases in frequency with advancing age. Similar to other surgical procedures, strategies are being developed to minimize morbidity and mortality while allowing for rapid recovery and early hospital discharge.

TKA causes moderate to severe postoperative pain for most patients. The goal of pain control after TKA is to provide excellent analgesia, early mobilization and rehabilitation, and to minimize opioid use, including overprescription of opioids after discharge Multimodal, opioid-sparing strategies for postoperative pain control include regional analgesia techniques (e.g., peripheral nerve blocks, LA infiltration, continuous epidural analgesia, neuraxial opioids) in addition to multimodal systemic analgesics.

Periarticular injection (PAI), also called local infiltration analgesia, and adductor canal block (ACB), a peripheral nerve block, are increasingly used as a component of multimodal postoperative analgesia and have been shown to reduce pain scores and opioid consumption after TKA. However, the impact of these modalities on the quality of postoperative recovery is unknown. The most widely used method of measuring this is the quality of recovery 40 (QoR 40) questionnaire. This questionnaire places increasing emphasis on measuring overall patient recovery and how quickly a patient can return to daily life after anesthesia and surgery.

Numerous studies have used the postoperative QoR-40 to compare different methods of anesthesia, adjuvants, regional analgesic techniques, and other factors on patient recovery and have been validated in Turkish.
